“Don’t do it unless you absolutely have to.” That was the advice I received when I first considered becoming a pastor many, many years ago. And it may surprise you to know that it came from pastor! Now, if that made you sit up and shake your head, then consider how it compares to what the Paul says here in his first letter to the Corinthians. He said, Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!" Was Paul filled with fear of some kind of punishment? Not at all. Actually, both statements come from hearts filled with joy! And they’re actually good reminders for all of us, for everyone who shares the Good News of our salvation in Jesus Christ.
